For me the best part of the WEC was gone before it even started: the ILMC. Never been a fan of WEC's desire to be a F1 clone by going to sterile, low atmosphere tracks, setting low entry caps and standardizing many aspects of the series. So I guess I'm very much in the same boat as Chiana here but probably not as enthusiastic as him as the ACO more or less continues on its chosen path.

Anyways, I'm more of an IMSA focused person these days, the presence of many old school tracks is a major attraction over WEC's parking lot fetish so the return to Sebring is huge!

Here's hoping the new 2020 (or whenever) P1 rules will benefit both sanctioning bodies and provide more harmony than conflict - the sport would certainly prosper as a result.
